Recipe information

  • Yield

    1 serving

Ingredients

2 large eggs, beaten
1 teaspoon chili powder
Salt and freshly ground black pepper
A few drops of hot sauce, such as Tabasco
2 to 3 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil (EVOO) (eyeball it)
1 cup (4 ounces) shredded Pepper Jack or chipotle Cheddar cheese, such as Cabot brand
1/2 cup store-bought tomatillo salsa, green chili salsa verde, or smoky chipotle salsa
1/2 avocado, sliced

Add the eggs and fry without stirring until brown and set, about 2 minutes. Flip the frittata. Top the frittata with cheese and salsa. Sprinkle the sliced avocado with a little lemon juice and arrange the slices across half of the frittata. Fold it over, so it resembles a taco. Slide the completed frittaco on to a plate and eat!
